Longitudinal forearm instability is a consequence of interosseous ligament complex disruption. Radiographic identifiers should alert the surgeon to the disrupted structures. Understanding the injury pattern can simplify the treatment process. The clinical presentation will vary based on the involved interosseous ligament components. The surgeon should aim to restore the anatomic radioulnar relationship and then address the remaining pathology as needed. The central band is the foundational structure that maintains this relationship and should be addressed in each injury pattern when disrupted. In this study, we describe rare forms of longitudinal forearm instability.

Cutaneous dysbiosis characterizes the post-allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation period.

Gut dysbiosis is linked to mortality and the development of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), but the impact of cutaneous dysbiosis remains unexplored. We performed a pilot observational study and obtained retroauricular and forearm skin swabs from 12 adult patients prior to conditioning chemotherapy/radiation, and at 1-week, 1-month and 3-months after allogeneic HSCT, and performed shotgun metagenomic sequencing. The cutaneous microbiome among HSCT patients was enriched for gram-negative bacteria such as E coli and Pseudomonas, fungi, and viruses.

Case: A 41-year old man fell from height sustaining displaced radial shaft and ulnar styloid fractures underwent open reduction internal fixation of the radius with early recognition of a radiocapitellar dislocation and longitudinal forearm instability in the early postoperative period. Revision surgery was performed 13 days postoperatively involving annular ligament reconstruction, elbow spanning external fixation, and distal radioulnar joint stabilization. Favorable functional and radiographic outcomes are shown at 1-year follow-up.

As a biarticular muscle, the biceps brachii both supinates the forearm and flexes the elbow and shoulder, thus allowing the upper limb to perform a variety of activities of daily living (ADL). The biceps brachii originates on the coracoid apex as well as the supraglenoid tubercle and inserts on the radial tuberosity. At the distal end, the bicipital aponeurosis (BA) provides a transition of the biceps tendon into the antebrachial fascia.

Radial longitudinal deficiency III and IV present as a short upper limb, functional elbow, and wrist with severe radial and palmar angulation, where the carpus articulates with the radial and palmar edge of the ulna, allowing limited mobility in a nonfunctional position. Surgical treatment aims to correct radial angulation and flexed carpal position, often altering carpal positioning over the distal ulna and impacting wrist mobility. In addition, fixation through distal ulnar epiphysis affects its growth.

Surface electromyography (sEMG) is useful for studying muscle function and controlling prosthetics, but cross talk from nearby muscles often limits its effectiveness. High-density surface EMG (HD-sEMG) improves spatial resolution, allowing for the isolation of M-waves in the densely packed forearm muscles. This study assessed HD-sEMG for localizing M-waves and evaluated the impact of spatial filters on cross talk reduction.
